Giselle M . I continued to elongate my long legs and reach forward until I was able to feel the bottom of my feet. Becoming completely overwhelmed with the stretching sensation, I let out a deep breath and reached back up to the sky. Continuously flexing and pointing my toes, I re-did the same combo about a good 4 times until I felt warmed up enough to move on to my next leg exercise.
Jazmin slightly sat on my back as she pushed me further down into my straddle. In between my thighs, a burning sensation arose, but as always... I ignored it, for I knew that the stretch was doing my legs some good.
"How you feeling baby girl?" Jazmin asked Satinia, watching as she drowned down her Fuji water.
Satinia sighed lowly. "I'm trying to prevent myself from beating Josephine's ass y'all, so just please try and astray from talking about the situation." She simply stated as the grip on her bottle cap gradually tightened from her twisting it onto the bottle.
I watched as Satinia quickly wiped the tears away that began to form at the brim of her eyes. "I'm okay, just know that." She assured both Jazmin and I.
I payed close attention to Satinia's body language a little while longer, for I had never saw her in this strange way. She was so sweet and always surrounded herself in a positive light, but the situation with Josephine had her blood boiling hot. and I didn't blame her.
I continued my leg stretches until further instructions were given. An unknown blonde haired lady strutted inside of the room, observing everyone's actions.
She looked quite familiar. She had a note pad under her arm and her eyes continued to squint. Everyone slowly, but surely stopped what they were doing and wondered who this particular woman was.
"Hello dancers!" She rejoiced, her wrinkly cheeks spreading into a wide smile. "Welcome incoming Freshman's to Juilliard, I hope you all plan on having a productive and hard working year! As you all know, we commit to nothing, but pure excellence and I'm so glad that you are all apart of the experience."
"Let me introduce myself," She boldly stated. "I am Leslie Corolla. Those of you who are not so new here acquaint me as being Josephine's mother." All eyes wandered over to Josephine as she stood and smiled.
So, that's who this lady reminds me of, I thought to myself.
Both Jazmin and I quickly looked over at Satinia as her cheeks shined a bright red.
"I am the Dean here of the dance program. I've been the Dean for about 5 years. Once again, I want to all welcome you and we shall began shortly. Please continue on with your stretching, if you can... eat a small healthy snack before intensives begin." With that being said, Mrs. Corolla walked on her heels and exited the small warm-up room.
